Answer 1

Answer: Out group Favoritism

Explanation: Generally, it is normal for people to tend to categorize themselves and other people into sets. when individuals categorize other people as being part of their group , such individuals consider themselves as grouping of others , and other people not in their circle as out group. this tends to make such individual see the other group much more  than their group and  to sometimes  negatively classify the out group which he or she does not  belong to as opposed to the in group they belong to.

Out group favoritism explains that  under certain conditions, people will prefer and have affinity for one's out-group over the in-group,  which can  be  seen in one's expression in the evaluation of the outgroup and in terms of  allocation of resources.
